Scratch Challenge: Day 4
By Daisy Luther
I hate “Fall Back” day. My sleep is always messed up with daylight savings time no matter which way it goes. Sometimes it even seems like the fact that I know it is daylight savings time means I won’t get a wink of sleep.
Soooo….I yawned all day long!
The Scratch Challenge continues, though regardless of my lack of sleep.
I’ve noticed that I’m getting way faster at baking. One reason, I suspect, is that I organized all of my baking supplies last week. I have a box that I filled with my basic supplies, like baking powder, baking soda, chocolate chips, vanilla extract, etc, etc, etc. When it’s time to bake, I pull that box out of the pantry and take it to wherever I’m working.
- 1 ½ cups of brown rice
- 2 ½ cups of liquid (water, broth, etc)
- 1 tsp of salt
- 1 tsp of butter or olive oil
- Seasoning to taste
- In an oven-safe pot with a lid, combine all ingredients and bring to a boil on the stovetop.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375F.
- Once the rice combination is boiling, put the lid on tightly and place in the oven for 1 hour. (No peeking!)
- At the end of the hour, remove the lid, fluff the rice and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
